Abstract
An emission control scheme intended to limit the localization and identification of a wireless device to known friendly wireless networks. Use of an intelligent access control (IAC) on a wireless device allows the user or administrator control over the revealing of the wireless device to any particular network. Passive scanning allows collection of network information while passive device-based location and on-board databased information on the wireless networks allows localization to thwart network spoofing for unfriendly positioning and identification of the wireless device.
